Critical Times – Fishbone's Hen House Sessions is a 2001 DVD release by Fishbone recorded at Hen House Studios, a free community recording studio in Venice, California.[1]

Cover to Critical Times

The film centers primarily on the creation, mutation and recording of the songs in the studio - giving a privileged viewpoint as if one were a member of the band. Some members Fishbone felt that they were at a critical moment in the band's history, and that the sessions could lead to a mainstream breakthrough or a total breakdown.[2] The seamless blend of multi-angle cinéma vérité and time lapse photography turns day to night and back again as the band pleads, cajoles, argues and uses every trick in the book to bring their music alive. Critical Times also delves into personal lives, politics, factions in the band and competing musical styles.

gollark: Really? Where?

gollark: I'm not going to help you. This would be very hard and the most interpretery thing I've done is... RPNcalc3, which is a simple stack language.
gollark: The closest I can think of is:- parse lua code to an AST- replace number literals with calls with some function which makes them a table with the metatable you want- also somehow do this to all functions which might return numbers- convert back to Lua and `load` it
